Plain-English advice

Boarding done properly
Storage boards go on loft legs, never straight onto the insulation.
Tidy work
Dust sheets on the route in and every bit of packaging taken away.
Fixed written price
The price on the quote is the price you pay. It only changes if you change the job, or if we find something hidden, such as rot, and you agree the change in writing first.

Questions about sheep's wool or natural loft insulation in Skelmersdale
Do you take on jobs outside Skelmersdale?
Yes. We also work in Ormskirk and Chorley and elsewhere in Lancashire.

Ask about early, late or weekend appointments when you get in touch, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer.
What do I need to do before you arrive in Skelmersdale?
Clear a path to the hatch and, if you can, move stored items away from the area we will be working in. Tell us about anything heavy or fragile.
Is sheep's wool insulation worth the extra cost?
In an older breathable house, or if you care about the material, often yes. In a modern semi with plasterboard ceilings the extra cost buys little performance.

Insulation-grade sheep's wool is treated against insects. We use products sold for loft insulation, not raw fleece.
